Freep this poll

Both candidates for Indiana's U.S. Senate seat agree that Capitol Hill is dominated by partisan gridlock – but they differ on if and how Congress can solve the problem, even as they compete for the same undecided voters.

U.S. Rep. Joe Donnelly, D-Granger, has preached a message of centrism and bipartisanship while relentlessly painting Republican state Treasurer Richard Mourdock as an extreme, right-wing ideologue.

An extremely biased article.

Sounds like it could have been written by some liberal “professor” at the local college.

Freeped as requested. Out here in fly-over country, AKA Indiana, we know Mourdock is not the sharpest knife in the drawer BUT while Donnelly comes across as a decent guy, once he gets out to DC he morphs into a Pelosi puppet.

He promised not to vote for Obamacare then turned around and did it anyway.

Here’s the deep irony: By going +11 in Indiana, Romney is going to pull Murdouck over the finish line.

I live in Indiana so I “freeped” this poll, but IMO (even if the left does this to ‘cheat’), I don’t think it’s ok for non state residents to vote in this poll.

I don't know about that. Do you feel the same about out of state donations? I have donated to candidates all over the country. IMO, once I have donated then I have a dog in the hunt.

It's an online poll, not voter fraud.

no, but personally I wouldn’t vote in polls that I don’t have a personal stake (I know this poll doesn’t say that) but what if it had said “For whom do you plan on voting for on election day: Richard Mourdock or Joe Donnelly?”

I live in Indiana (and did vote for Mourdock already, but if I weren’t a Hoosier, then I wouldn’t vote in even an online poll because it would be ~lying~).
